New Delhi: Kubbra Sait, popularly known for playing the role of Kukoo in 'Sacred Games' shared her experience on working with Salman Khan. In a recent interview, Kubbra recalled working with Salman Khan in 'Ready' in 2011. In the film, Kubbra had played the role of a house help in the film. In a recent interaction with Faye D'Souza for her YouTube channel, Kubbra recalled that Salman had arrived to shoot for the film at 2:45 PM while the entire crew had been waiting for him since morning.

Kubbra shared that she had left the hotel at 5:30 am with just one apple. When she asked for breakfast, "They said apple, they flung an apple at my face. I asked for one more and they flung another apple at my face. They were saying we’ll start the shoot at 10. That became 11, 11 became 12."

After waiting for hours with the rest of the crew, there was excitement around 2:45 PM. “You know someone important has arrived. That important person is the hero of the film. Everyone’s pulling up their pants and like let’s do some work and there emerges Salman Khan. We were shooting at a golf course so it’s a visual. There are these big massive life-sized windows and Salman Khan comes and flexes his back, moves his head to either side and says ‘Lunch break karein?'”

Kubbra laughed and recalled that she had eaten only an apple since morning and no work had been done until 3 PM. “Idhar main ek apple khaya hai subah se. Kaam bhi kar lete hain na," she said.

The 'Jawaani Janeman' actor then added that there were positive aspects of working with a megastar like Salman Khan. Speaking about his welcoming nature, she said, "Always look for the positives. This man would always bring every co-actor on that set on that big dining table and everybody eats with him. So I feel, breaking bread with someone becomes like most forgiving act ever."

After 'Ready', Kubbra also shared screen space with Salman Khan in 'Sultan'. 

Meanwhile, Salman Khan has 'Tiger 3' with Katrina Kaif in the pipeline and 'Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali' with Pooja Hegde and Shehnaaz Gill. Fans are really anticipating both of Salman's films, particularly his third installment of 'Tiger' which is slated to be released this year.

Meanwhile, Kubbra Sait was last seen in 'Foundation' and 'Murder in Agonda'.
